Wedding Profile: Jenn and Thomas

 
    This summer I had the great pleasure of watching one of my dearest friends marry the love of her life in a beautiful celebration of love. 

    I love all weddings, but it is so special to see someone you have grown up with walk down the aisle looking radiant; to hear family and friends give heartfelt speeches, voices thick with tenderness and emotion; and to see all the beautiful personal touches that make the day unique to the newlyweds.

    When Jenn and Thomas decided they would like cookies for favours, I was honoured, and excited-- the reception venue of the Main Street Heritage Hall in Vancouver, and the colour palette of ivory, blush pinks, corals, and accents of Tiffany Blue, would set the tone for a gorgeous vintage theme.
I coordinated colours with the stylish stationary created by Bean Cards and Stationary.

 Huge, elegant party balloons greeted guests at the entrance to the reception.  They can be ordered from Fun Fiestas by Ili.

The bridal party bouquets and the table centrepieces were whimsical and featured lush cabbage roses, sprigs of rosemary, and other beautiful blooms.

Place settings included menus promising an amazing feast, place cards featuring the bride's calligraphy, and our Steveston Cookie Company cookies!

The cake toppers included Louie-- the couple's adorable French bulldog.

   There were so many other details that tied together the vintage theme, and honoured the bride and groom.  There was a candy buffet with so many delicious treats, a huge slab of wood for guests to sign in lieu of the traditional guest book (the groom has a hobby of making amazing furniture and the 'guest book' wood will no doubt be made into something stunning for the couple's home), and much, much more.  However, as the wine began flowing, and dancing started, my camera skills deteriorated rapidly.  Thank you Jenn and Thomas, for including us in your beautiful, beautiful day!
